Leicester City manager Claude Puel has confirmed Daniel Amartey will not be available for the trip to the Hawthorns on Saturday to face struggling West Bromwich Albion.

The Ghanaian international picked up a hamstring injury during Leicester’s 1-1 stalemate Bournemouth last weekend.

Puel, however, has been handed a major boost ahead of the game with the return of Shinji Okazaki.

He will have a full squad to choose from bar Amartey who is expected to receive medical clearance sometime next week.

“[Daniel] Amartey, of course, has a hamstring injury. All the players, like Shinji [Okazaki], are available and fit to come back into the squad.” - Claude Puel

The Foxes currently lie 8th on the league standings after 29 games played with 37 points.
